Faint positive tests after years TTC, but digital says not pregnant

ive been TTC for over 10yrs. Had 4 losses and finally getting some help with drs etc.
recently had an ultrasound which showed endometriosis with a mass outside my womb which they have said is pushing against where the egg would implant. Awaiting another ultrasound to finalise these results.
I haven’t tracked this cycle but had 3 days bleeding around ovulation. Period was due 3 days ago so decided to test.
did an easy@home and swear I could see a very very faint line. So decided to do an early CB. Well I decided to do 2 😂 because that’s definitely a line right!!!
I did an early digital which said not pregnant.
freaking out because that’s definitly a line isn’t it! But the digital says no. But also, if this mass is going to kick it out then am I definitely going to have another loss.

Those all have a line, but more of a couple days after implantation line. Hopefully just a late ovulation, but could also be a chemical 🙁 digital test takes longer to show positive anyway, maybe just do another in a couple days and see if it’s noticeably darker otherwise probably bad news.

I’m not feeling hopeful. Just took me by surprise tbh

Honestly when TTC for both of my children I stayed away from those tests because they are horrendous for evap lines, despite being one of the more expensive tests, so unreliable, so I wouldn’t trust those x

These tests are from different boxes. But I’m not holding out much hope

I’ve just had my positive on a clear blue digital early result… 2 days after my BFP on cheapie tests. I have two negative clear blue digitals the past two days. They’re meant to be the same sensitivity level (10) but in my experience they aren’t. Try again tomorrow 🩷 in the meantime you could go and buy a first response red dye test which will hopefully give you a clearer positive :-)

Congratulations on your BFP

I would use a pink dye test they are more accurate xx

I had a squinted of a line on easy@home which is what made me do these. The camera wouldn’t pick it up though as so faint

Buy a first response.

Never buy a clear blue blue dye test, horrible for evap lines, you'll always get a faint positive on these. I had 2 on two seperate ones one month, especially if outside of the time frame (which is my own fault as you're not supposed to check back) you'll get clear bright blue lines when you check back on them. Always do pink dye, I haven't bought them since and they're not cheap.

I’ve done another pink dye easy@home tonight on diluted pee and there’s a faint line still.
Will retest in the morning with the easy@home and go from there I think
